The Early Years Framework Breaking the Cycles......
To break the intergenerational cycle of disadvantage, we know that we,“............must adopt measures unlikely to show their full benefits until 5-15 years after the initial commitment. This with the constant political imperative for short term results, since governments both national and local are elected for only a few years. This pressure, combined with a natural dislike of increasing taxation, too often makes investment in the long-term an unattractive political option.” (Wave Trust Report, 20 Nov 2007)

“The period between pregnancy and 3 years is increasingly seen as a critical period in shaping children’s life chances, based on evidence of brain formation……………….”

Bruce Perry’s work shows what happens if you don’t have positive
interaction. The smaller of the two brains is of a child who received little interaction. It is a picture of extreme neglect.
...Brains are affected by experience!

“The Millennium Cohort Study provided evidence of significant inequalities in development at age 3 that can persist throughout people’s lives. Supporting parents to provide a stimulating and supportive home environment, particularly in the early years, combined with high quality pre-school and school education is therefore a key element in delivering solidarity and cohesion........ “

“ An insecurely attached child is more vulnerable than others to be the victim of traumatic experiences. The development of disorders such as depression and psychosis can be associated with earlier trauma.” (p.12)

“............these findings suggest that activities do have an influence on children’s cognitive development and that they can moderate – though by no means eradicate - the effect of socio- demographic disadvantage. “

The EPPE ProjectSome findings...................
The quality of the home learning environment promoted intellectual and social development in all children.
Although parent’s social class and levels of education
were related to child outcomes, the home learning environment was more important. What parents
do is more important than who they are.

As we strive for world-class outcomes for all of our children,
a renewed focus on knocking down barriers and building bridges between research, policymaking and practice should be a key feature of our
transformational agenda.
